LX3 Sample shots and evaluation (in Korean Forum: Popco.net)
Aug 1, 2008
Actually, I saw a lot of decent sample shots in full size taken from an expert and evaluations in the following Korean Forum (Popco.net).
So let me give you some links ...
The important note I got from the manager of the forum is "don't distribute the photos without permission".
So I hope you just look at those photos for yourself.

The quality of wide angle converter
Comparison of shots with wide angle converter (1.33 zoom) and shots without.
The reason for zoom is to set the picture size be the same.
Left-hand side picture are shots with wide angle converter.
The last 5 picture are shots with wide angle converter with no zoom.

It will be better if you give me some feedbacks about the LX3,
because now I'm seriously considering buying it as soon as it is released.
